No Album Art after trasnfer from WMP11??

Recently I tried to transfer music from WMP11 to my N82 thru USB cable connection set at Music Player profile. However to much of my dismay, the album arts that was stored in my music files in Windows Media Player is not displayed after it was transferred to my N82.
What could be wrong and how do I remedy it?
Thanks!
PS: thanks Nokia for enabling music tag editting on-the-go!

Hi El,
thanks for your input. I realise the problem with WMP11 way of handling album art which is the cause of my problem here. I am in the midst of deleting the album art of my songs and paste them back as Cover (front) which is damn tedious given that the tag editor in WMP11 is not user friendly at all.
I do manage my album art well using iTunes but sadly, the album arts are not displayed preperly on WMP11. Any suggestions for a quick and fast way to update my album art in WMP?
Next, I would like to feedback on the Nokia Music Manager (NMM). This is nice that Nokia has created this software for music transfer. back in the days N series phones are not supported by WMP, it is the main tool for music transfer for my device. However, it performance as a music manager disappoints me.
Firstly, the tag details of the songs are not displayed fully after scanning my library of 3k plus songs. Also, the album art function is not functioning at all. There is no wat to drag and drop the album art on the NMM. Anyone experience the same problem as me? Any syggestions??

Cant get album art after converting from wma

After convertong old wma files into itunes format, clicking on get album art initiates the process and it seems to go through each album retrieving art, yet picture never appears. Any ideas?

OK in windows media player, it will pull the album art up, but it doesn't attach the art to the song, instead it hides the art in the system and attaches a series of numbers to be ID. In iTUnes tho the art is attached to the songs tags.
Now there may be some program you can find on the net that will automaticly do this for you, I have no idea but heres how to do it manually.
Now the art work will reside where the song is. Since most music is put in the "My MUsic" folder i'll focus there, but if you have songs in another folder there artwork will be in that folder with them. Open My Music folder and goto tools>folder options>view tab Now check "Show Hidden Files and Folder" then UNCHECK "Hide Protected Operating System Files" You should now see all the album art listed.

My iPod 4G, after reset and iOS 6 install, now has only some album art after syncing music. Even music directly downloaded from iTunes is missing album art. (I'm using iTunes 11.0.1 on Windows Vista)

My iPod 4G, after a reset and iOS6 install, after I recopied and synced music, is missing most album art. Even songs directly downloaded from iTunes are missing album art. I'm using iTunes 11.0.1 on Windows Vista. My iPod isn't full. Whenever I go to "On This iPod" and add album art and sync, nothing happens. Please help :/

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Unsync all music and resync
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

IOS 7 music app does not display artist pictures and has incorrect album art after master reset.

Strange issue here. I did the update from iOS 6 to iOS 7, after I did the update, I noticed my synced music has just a random photo of the artist / group, that seems to be downloaded from the iTunes sites, because these pictures of the artist/group is not my album artwork.
I did a master reset on my device because I wanted to start from a clean slate, and set it up as a new phone. I went through and adjusted all of my settings and synced my music back on via iTunes, now its not showing these pictures any longer, infact, the strangest issue of them all.. is now when I view artists, the album that I synced now has a complete different album artwork picture that is not related to that album.
I am at a loss, my iTunes is extremely organized, I have everything configured to be 100% accurate for track names, artist, album, and album artwork.
Anyone have any input here? It only screwed up after the reset I did. This has to be a bug or something.

SiMooew469: Thank you! After countless wasted hours messing with this, your solution was the only one that worked! After setting up a few phones "as new" I noticed all the artist images would appear (for those that have one) even with my Match turned on. I could not duplicate it on my restored-from-backup iPhone5S, as I would get a mix of the images and album art, even for those artists that have profile photos on the as-new setups. I couldn't afford to lose all my text messages, etc. that come with restoring a phone as-new, so I tried about everything else under the sun: I tried logging in-and-out of my Apple ID, toggling Match on-and-off, I even deleted iTunes_control folder using iExplorer on a Windows machine. Nothing worked.
Here's what finally did:
If you don't have it set this way already, toggle "Group By Album Artist" in Settings->Music. For some reason that makes a difference for some artists in your library that appear when album artist is set to "Various Artists" or something other than the track's artist. Logout of your Apple ID. Log in with any other Apple ID. Open the Music app and watch all the artist images load in the Artisits tab. Once it is done, logout of the other Apple ID and login with your regular Apple ID. Finally, all the artist images will remain. Those artists that do not have a profile photo with iTunes will still show album art, which is by design. Hopefully Apple will keep updating that database.
Incidentally, it's a bit odd that those profile photos don't appear in the Artists view in iTunes 11...or am I the only one?

Missing album art after moving library

Hi,
I had to move my iTunes library to my new computer. The music files were then place on the H:-drive instead of the D:-drive. I also copied the iTunes folder from my old computer over to my new compuer's My Music folder - just as it was located on my old computer.
iTunes had no problem locating the music files, but it appears that all the album art is missing. I have checked that my Album Artwork folder is copied as well.
Is there any quickfix to this, or do I have to reload all the album artwork? There were quite a few albums for which I had located the art manually (not using iTunes) so it's a shame if it's all lost
Any help is appreciated.
thanks and regards,
Svein-Helge Lea

It's solved !!
It was really silly of me not to see this immediately. On my old computer I had the small album art window showing "selected item", but after moving to my new computer it showed "Now playing". And last night I wasn't playing, hence nothing showed up there.
Now evertything is okay and in place.
Thanks anyway.

Does iTunes take album art with it from computer to computer?

I am going to transfer my entire iTunes library to a new computer in a few weeks. Will iTunes automatically take all my album art with it to the new computer, or will I have to have to find it all again?
I listen to mainly classical music, so iTunes has a hard time finding most of my album art. It was a painstaking process of searching amazon.com for hours to get most of the album covers...I'd hate to have to do it again.
Thanks in advance to anyone who has experience with this!

I'm resurrecting this old thread because the question wasn't answered and I face the same problem. I want to copy my music from my external HD to an internal HD and want the album artwork I've painstaking downloaded from Amazon and other sources (cduniverse, google image search, etc) to be preserved. By "album artwork", I mean that I've dragged the image into the album artwork box in the lower-left of the iTunes window - I haven't embedded it into each individual track's ID3 tag area.
Using "consolidate library" followed by an iTunes-initiated copy isn't what I want. Let me explain why.
Currently my large collection of MP3's is on an external H.D. but doesn't live in the iTunes folder. The top-level folders are -
\iTunes
\My Music\_A-D
\My Music\_E-J
\My Music\_M-R
\My Music\_S-Z
\My Music\CLASSICAL
\My Music\SOUNDTRACKS
\My Music\VARIOUS
... and under each top-level folder there are artist\album folders containing the actual music.
If I consolidate, everything will be merged into artist\album format under iTunes, which will me more of a pain to navigate outside of iTunes. Instead, I want to preserve the current \My Music structure.
Right now I keep the \iTunes folder and \My Music on the external HD which I mount as "T:" under Windows XP SP2 on my home PC, my laptop, or my office PC. That way iTunes works fine in all three places. But I'd like to copy the whole library onto the internal "E:" drive of my home machine or my office machine and have the library look like it does now, with artwork intact.
But I'm pretty sure if I just do the copy that I'll lose all the album artwork, since it must reference files on the external HD T:\[etc] explicitly, which won't exist when I copy the database to the internal HD E:\[etc] and eject the external HD.
Does anyone know how to do this? Are there 3rd-party tools which can re-reference the album artwork database before or after the copy?

Lost embedded album art after iTunes 11 upgrade

I just spent 6 months embedding album art into my music files and movie files. Pre-iTunes 11, all album art was displayed. After upgrading to iTunes 11, every album and movie starting with the letter A and B has no album art. I used purchased Mac apps to embed album art into my files, so I know it is there. Can somebody from Apple please fix this bug? Maybe in the next iTunes update, can Apple fix the issue with iTunes not showing embedded abum art. I am not talking about added album art, I am talking about purchasing an App to use and actually embedding album art into my music and movie files from my own personal purchased content. Please somebody look into this and fix in the next update? If I got into Finder and navigate to my iTunes music/movies folder, the movie/music file is there with the embedded album art. So, this proves to me that there is a bug in iTunes 11 that prevents it from displaying album art for every piece of content that starts with the letter A and B. Please fix?

I have the exact same problem. I've found that for movies, if I choose "Get Info" for each movie and then click on the "Artwork" tab, my cover art is still there and I just have to select it and it restores it for the movie. I haven't checked with music, as most of my music art is fine. This is a pain as I have a couple hundred movies that I have to do this for (uuuggghhhhh), but at least it's a fix.

Album art not transfering from iTunes to iPod

Manually managing my ipod. When copying songs over to the iPod, only about half of the album art that is in my iTunes shows up on the iPod. I deleted all of the music from my 160 and copied it over again to see if it would fix the problem but nothing changed. Some album art comes over, some does not.

Are you auto-syncing the iPod? If so, when you add artwork to songs in your library the songs should be replaced by iTunes on your next sync. If not, you can force a new copy on your iPod by (a) set your iPod to sync only checked items, (b) un-checking the problem items, (c) re-sync your iPod, (d) re-check the problem items, and (e) re-sync again. But this process should not be necessary if you're on auto-sync -- any tag changes should automatically trigger a replacement of the updated song on your iPod.
If you're manually managing your iPod, if you update songs in your library the updates will not automatically transfer to your iPod. To do that, you should delete the songs from your iPod which have been updated with artwork in iTunes, then add the updated copies from iTunes back to your iPod.

Missing/inconsistent/wrong album art after installing iTunes 10

Ever since I installed iTunes 10, weird things are happening with the album art in my iTunes libraries and across my iPods and iPhone.
Before the update, most of my library had album art -- in fact, I had gone to the trouble of pasting it into the individual songs so that it would be "embedded" in the file.
It's still there in the library, but not on my phone or iPods, random tracks are missing artwork, or display artwork from a different track.
Makes no sense, or at least I haven't been able to figure out what the commonality is with the affected tracks. Anyone else seen this?

If all your music is in iTunes, you could try restoring your iPod, this will erase the hard drive, reload the software and put it back to default settings: Restoring iPod to Factory Settings
Alternatively if your iPod is set to update automatically then try this:
1. Connect your iPod
2. Disable "Show Album art" in iTunes>Edit>Preferences>iPod.
3. Syncronise the iPod with iTunes. (Disconnecting and then reconnecting your iPod will do the trick)
4. Re-enable "Show Album Art" in iTunes>Edit>Preferences>iPod.
5. Syncronise the iPod again.

ITunes jacked up album art after adding music to iPhone

After adding some new music to my phone last night, I noticed several files either lost the album art or it was wrong altogether. This has happened before and it took several frustrating hours of documenting which files were messed up and correcting the album art. But when I corrected the discrepancy, others that had the right artwork originally got messed up. So I had to constantly check and recheck to make sure the music had the right art.
The funny thing is, in iTunes the album art 'appears' correct under the iPhone device section. It's just wrong when you physically look at the phone. Do I need to go through the entire list of songs on the phone and delete every piece of album art and start all over again? Just so I don't have to go through 5 or 6 iterations before iTunes gets it right?
We're dealing with 1s and 0s here so what causes iTunes to mess this up?

I am having the same issue. I recently update my mac and then want to update my iphone. I notice my art album on my iphone is all mess up. I check my music on iTunes the art album are correct. What am I suppose to do to correct this problem. This problem just happen yesterday (10/30/2013). Please help because I don't want to go throughout my entire music when it's apple fault..please advise on what to do. Thanks

Missing album art after restore

This seems to be a recurring issue but I haven't found any definite solutions. After I restored my iPhone 5 and then restored my backup, the album art for much of my music is gone. They'll all show up on the Songs menu, but under Artist and Album, only some will show up. I've tried unsyncing (removing) all the songs and then resyncing (readding) them but to no avail. How can I get the album art to be displayed for everything?

Delete and re-sync the affected songs.

Hi, Does anyone know how to get all album art to import from Itunes.

My Itunes Library/Media states that all album art is present and accounted for but when I sync with Itunes half of my album art on the Ipad is blank.

Hi WIll_Maveric
To get album art to an album on iTunes:
Go to iTunes
Right Click on the album you want to get the art for
Click album artwork
If the songs/album can be found on the iTunes database it will add automatically
If the songs/album cannot be found on the iTunes database it will not add automatically, so I would suggest you go to the internet find the image.
Copy it and then go into iTunes
Right click on the album/song
Click on Get Info
Click on Artwork
Paste the image into the box (Command v) or (Control v)P
Then click OK
Go to your device and sync it again
You will have the artwork there.
Many Thanks for your question and allowing me to help you today.

Lost all album art after moving library to new HD

So, I found that my iTunes library was growing too big for my primary hd. I added an extra internal HD and followed the instructions on how to move my iTunes library found here (http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301748). Everything seemed to come over ok (playlists, play counts) except for my album art. All of it has gone missing. I can't possibly add all that art in again. Can anyone tell me how to get my art back (I still have the original iTunes folder on my primary HD) or what I did wrong in moving the library.
Thanks
P.S. I'm running iTunes 6.0.1 on a G5 with 10.4.3
G5 Mac OS X (10.4.3)

OK Ive attempted all the suggestions mentioned here but have still had no luck. I deleted all the original iTunes docs on my Mac and rebooted etc but iTunes is still refusing to ignore the new iTunes folder on my new external HD, even though it is already connected.
I also tried to import the songs back into iTunes by creating a new iTunes folder on my ext HD but it just seems to create a duplicate of the folder Im trying to get iTunes to recognise and I cant see the point in waiting another 12hrs to import the songs again just so iTunes can recreate a duplicate of what I already have !
Heres how Ive directed iTunes to the folder using prefs :
NewHD/Music/iTunes/iTunesMusic
and then in the iTunesMusic folder are the artists folders and then inside of them are the album folders for each artist.
I also had a bunch of other stuff in my iTunes folder that I have tried iTunes with the items still in the folder and them taken out, heres what they are :
Album Artwork Folder (But this has been recreated on my Mac since I reset iTunes)
iTunes Export Text File
iTunes Library Data File (Again recreated on my Mac since resetting iTunes)
iTunes Music Library.xml File (Again recreated on my Mac since resetting iTunes)
Previous iTunes Libraries Folder containing 3 iTunes Library Data Files named iTunes 4 Music Library, iTunes Library 2005-9-8 and iTunes Library 2006-09-12.
As I have said I have tried iTunes both with these files and without unless Im using them in the wrong place.
Can any please possibly help me with my situation and the placement of the right files in the right place as I do not wish to have to go through the process of re-importing especially when all iTunes is going to do is recreate something that I already have ... many thanks

Missing Album Art After Upgrade

When I upgraded to itunes 8, I lost dozens of album images which I had searched and added by hand. For at least 18 pieces of art, I will not be able to retrieve them, as they were magazine covers which the CDs were included. Those covers are no longer on line. Is the Album art stored somewhere on my computer that I can still accress it? It is entirely random (to me) what art is and is not there...I lost older stuff and newer stuff, but there is art of every vintage still there too

Delete and re-sync the affected songs.
